Evaluation

This course has no midterm OR final examination but evaluation will be ongoing based on a number of components listed below. Many activities for the development of the projects will be developed during class time, but activities outside class time will also be required. Class attendance counts toward your grade and active participation in your group activities is required for you to do well in the course. This year, there will also be three short (30 minute) in-class quizzes based on the lecture material in response to student feedback from earlier versions of this course.
